 What was it you wanted?
 Tell me again so I'll know
 What's happening in there
 What's going on in your show
 What was it you wanted
 Could  you say it again?
 I'll be back in a minute
 You can get it together by then

 What was it you wanted
 You can tell me, I'm back
 We can start it all over
 Get it back on the track
 You got my attention
 Go  ahead, speak
 What was it you wanted
 When you were kissing my cheek?
 |  |  |  | % |
 Was there somebody looking
 When you gave me that kiss
 Someone there in the shadows
 Someone that I might have missed?
 Is there something you needed
 Something  I don't understand
 What was it you wanted
 Do I have it here in my hand?
 |  |  |  | % |
 Whatever you wanted
 Slipped out of my mind
 Would you remind me again
 If you'd be so kind
 Has the record been breaking
 Did the needle just skip
 Is there somebody waiting
 Was there a slip of the lip?
 What was it you wanted
 I ain't keeping score
 Are you the same person
 That was here before?
 Is it something important?
 Maybe  not
 What was it you wanted?
 Tell me again I forgot

 Whatever you wanted
 What could it be
 Did somebody tell you
 That you could get it from me
 Is it something that comes natural
 Is it easy to say
 Why do you want it
 Who are you anyway?
 Is the scenery changing
 Am I getting it wrong
 Is the whole thing going backwards
 Are they playing our song?
 Where were you when it started
 Do  you want it for free
 What was it you wanted
 Are you talking to me?
